Hi, this is a good start, but there is not enough context. Some suggestions:
- make a new directory
usecases/selfcontained-dut
and rename this fileusecases/selfcontained-dut/README.md
. This is where it will live when we're all done; treat this as a draft. This is about a self-contained DUT testbed, not about just about back to back testing. Someone might even use it with snake testing, or internal loopbacks eventually. - write it as if it were a step-by-step tutorial for demonstrating this use-case. Also, in the section https://github.com/selldinesh/SAI-Challenger/tree/main/usecases#readme, add something like "See selfcontained-dut for a tutorial" so it links to this README.
- Add a link to the diagram e.g. ![saic-physical-dut-sw-tgen-self-contained](../../../img/saic-physical-dut-sw-tgen-self-contained.svg or whatever it needs to be, so it's in your README for reference.
- Provide all the steps you performed to get this running, including all relevant Dockerfile etc. steps you took after all our discussions.
Consider: you get once chance to tell him what you need in order to get answer by the morning. What must you tell him in this initial communication? The e-mail should be a simple cover letter/request, the README should be self-contained. Don't worry that it is incomplete and has dead-ends in it, you can fix all that later. But an outsider (Andriy) has nothing to go on but this; what information does he need to get to the same place you did?
Hope this sheds some light on my approach.

This PR contains the readme document for running tests in a self-contained manner using ixia-c.
As the first step towards the process we have tried sending 100 packets using scapy on the sonic dut ports which are connected in a back to back manner and documenting the steps done
